Stulp, Freek; Oudeyer, Pierre-Yves – Developmental Science, 2018
To harness the complexity of their high-dimensional bodies during sensorimotor development, infants are guided by patterns of freezing and freeing of degrees of freedom. For instance, when learning to reach, infants free the degrees of freedom in their arm proximodistally, that is, from joints that are closer to the body to those that are more…

Learmonth, Amy E.; Newcombe, Nora S.; Sheridan, Natalie; Jones, Meredith – Developmental Science, 2008
When mobile organisms are spatially disoriented, for instance by rapid repetitive movement, they must re-establish orientation. Past research has shown that the geometry of enclosing spaces is consistently used for reorientation by a wide variety of species, but that non-geometric features are not always used. Based on these findings, some…
